Gaining Traffic for a New Blog

I thought I would share some of the techniques I use to get traffic to my new sites and blogs, feel free to share your own!

  • Find keywords which have a high search rate but low competition, target them, and boom Obviously it's not just as easy as that, but it can be done if you do your research
  • Make a page on your site dedicated to the above keyword, but make it quality. Let's call this page our 'high quality high search high profit' page... Promote this page more than anything else on your site for a while, so that you get ranked very high in google for the term you are targeting. Submit this page to as many social bookmarking sites as you can with the anchor text being the keyword you are targeting. Do the same for a few directories.
  • Use free classified sites like Craigslist to your advantage, these kind of sites have hundreds of thousands of visitors per day and they can be highly targeted if you do this properly!
  • Find a forum related to your niche and make quality posts there. After you have made 10-15 posts that actually contribute to the community, add a link to your site in your signature. Most forums will be more than happy for you to link back to your site in your signature if you are contributing. Link to quality content on your site when relevant (and ONLY then), too.
  • Use sites like WetPaint Wiki, HubPages, Squidoo and other user-generated content sites to promote your site. Do this in a subtle way - make your pages on these sites have information that is useful to the reader, but link back to some of your own articles and posts a few times.
  • Comment on other related blogs (if you're running a blog that is) - many believe this is pointless due to the NoFollow tag but it lets other readers and site owners aware of your website, and can bring small leaks of traffic every now and then.

Another thing you might do :
Submit articles to free article submisson sites and get backlinks to your site.

Harmoni Semesta by Hendry Kusmarian

Harmoni Semesta (HS) adalah nama untuk suatu paradigma bagi Sains Baru. Paradigma adalah suatu kerangka konseptual sederhana yang di seputar itu suatu sistem kompleks pemikiran atau perilaku bisa ditata. Paradigma adalah scaffolding (penyangga) bagi gagasan-gagasan. Karena naluriah, dikenal secara universal, dan mudah dimengerti, paradigma memberikan suatu titik acuan sentral bagi masyarakat untuk menilai diri. Sains Baru adalah perkembangan dari Sains Modern. Sains Modern dibangun di atas paradigma Newton. Paradigma Newton memiliki 3 pilar utama: reduksionisme (yaitu paham yang melihat segala sesuatu terdiri dari bagian-bagian; pemahaman terhadap setiap bagian akan memberikan gambaran lengkap tentang sesuatu), determinisme (paham bahwa semesta bekerja menurut hukum sebab-akibat yang pasti); obyektivisme (paham bahwa kebenaran bersifat obyektif, tidak bergantung pada pengamat dan cara mengamati). Pembentukan paradigma Harmoni Semesta diharapkan mampu menghadirkan dimensi baru yang akan lebih memperkaya makna kehidupan. Harapan lebih tingginya adalah paradigma HS akan mampu mengantar kita lebih dekat kepada hakikat Semesta yang kita cari sejak puluhan abad silam.
